treycordova / sprockets-loader Goto Github PK

Hello!

First of all: thank you for making sprockets-loader! It's saving me a bunch of time using webpack with a ton of sprocket directives.

I've noticed a couple of things which I'm unsure whether is a bad configuration on my part or just supported (yet?):

• Coffeescript files with sprocket directives are not pre-loaded with sprockets-loader on webpack-dev-server?

e.g.

entry point: entry.js

//= require some_coffee_file.coffee

coffeescript file with sprockets directive: some_coffee_file.coffee

#= require some_dependency

class Foo
  constructor: ->
    console.log 'making foooooo'

According to Chrome dev tools, the coffeescript being evaluated is exactly the same as the source. I am under the assumption that it should have been pre-loaded and have the #= require some_dependency translated to require('some_dependency').

I looked through the source code and it seems to have the appropriate matchers for coffeescript -- even ran a simple example with a coffeescript entry point. This leads me to believe it must be some compatibility issue with webpack-dev-server.

I'm not really sure how webpack-dev-server works so I was hoping for some clarification / acknowledgement of the issue. In the mean time, I'll try to get my rails project working without the webpack-dev-server.
